Abstract

Spontaneous cerebrospinal rhinorrhea is a rare clinical condition. More commonly it develops due to cerebral tumours or hydrocephalus; it is seldom seen in association with empty sella syndrome. A sixty-three-year-old woman who presented with left nasal discharge was hospitalized on the suspicion of CSF rhinorrhea. Analysis of the nasal fluid revealed a clear colour, a positive Pandy's test, and a positive result for glucose (72%). On magnetic resonance scans, herniation of the suprasellar cistern was observed into the sellar cavity, and the left sphenoid sinus was filled with contrast medium. The repair of the fistula was performed via a transnasal and transsphenoidal approach. The patient was followed-up for five years without any symptoms or recurrences.

Özet

Spontan serebrospinal rinore nadir görülen bir durumdur; daha sıklıkla serabral tümörlere veya hidrosefalusa bağlı olarak gelişir. Empty sella sendromu ile birlikte görülmesi daha da nadirdir. Sol nazal akıntı şikayetiyle başvuran 63 yaşındaki kadın hasta, serebrospinal sıvı rinoresi öntanısı ile yatırıldı. Nazal sıvı incelendiğinde renksiz olduğu görüldü; Pandy testi pozitif, glukoz %72 düzeyinde bulundu. Manyetik rezonans görüntülemede suprasellar sisternanın sellar kaviteye herniye olduğu ve sfenoid sinüsün orta derecede kontrast tuttuğu izlendi. Fistülün onarımı transnazal ve transsfenoidal yolla gerçekleştirildi. Hastanın beş yıllık takibi süresince herhangi bir semptom ya da nüksle karşılaşılmadı.
